Quality Assured with USF Ion Exchange Resin

USF ion exchange resin is manufactured by the leading resin companies to meet Siemens more stringent, performance-based specifications. These standards are higher than those used by the manufacturers in testing their own products. USF ion exchange resin was developed in response to inconsistent performance and quality trends experienced in the resin marketplace. Siemens provides process guarantees on all resins sold and therefore, it became necessary to establish new, more stringent resin performance specifications to ensure our resins met stated expectations. USF ion exchange resins are guaranteed to meet our performance specifications. The resins are tested in our state-of-the-art analytical laboratory to verify compliance to specifications based on the following: Capacity Percent Salt Split Capacity vs. Total Capacity Percent Conversion Percent Moisture Particle Size Percent Whole, Cracked, Broken Bead Strength Metallic and inorganic impurities Kinetics Additional performance testing is also available upon request.

Specialized Services for System Efficiency and Cost Effective Operation

Siemens offers a wide range of support services to help maintain ion exchange systems and eliminate the liabilities associated with spent resin handling and disposal. Our trained service technicians are available to provide services from over 85 branch locations throughout North America. Resin Removal and Replacement Siemens team of trained professionals will provide complete project coordination, from predisposal testing to new resin installation to used resin landfill disposal or investment recovery (used resin brokers). With complete responsibility in Siemens hands, you can be assured that your project will be completed professionally, on schedule, within budget and most importantly, in full compliance with all local and governmental regulations. Removal and Replacement Service includes: 1. Pre-disposal Toxicity Characteristic Leachable Procedure (TCLP) testing for hazardous chemicals and metals. 2. Pre and post disposal documentation. 3. Removal of existing resin. 4. Visual inspection of the service vessel. 5. Installation of the new resin. 6. Pre-arranged disposal at a licensed land fill or investigate potential investment recovery through used resin brokers. Laboratory Testing and Process Evaluation To ensure optimum performance, Siemens recommends periodic laboratory analysis of your ion exchange resin. Siemens owns and operates a state-of-the-art laboratory and is capable of determining resin quality, as well as diagnosing operating problems and evaluating new ion exchange products. Standard laboratory resin testing Capacity before/after clean up steps Percent moisture Particles size Iron Fouling Microscopic visual examination Additional testing available Percent conversion Bead strength Metallic impurities Cross contamination Kinetics (Mix Bed Test) Kinetics (MTOC Extractables 16 hour soak Dynamic Mass Transfer) Organic Cl, SO4 TOC Extractables 16 hour soak (UV) Dynamic (UV) Parr Bomb Terminal Settling Velocity (TSV) Super Fines (-60 mesh)

Processing/Blending Siemens provides resin processing services to meet customers high purity needs. Our specially designed facility uses microelectronics grade water (typically <3 ppb TOC, 18+ Megohm and <50 ppt Na) to ensure the integrity of the processes. Special customer requirements may include: Extremely low organic leachable impurities (TOC, UV Cl, UV SO4 , etc.) Conversion to specific ionic forms (Li-7, K,Ca, various amines, etc.) Terminal Settling Velocity Modified (for improved separability) Custom mixing and blending of resins Custom packaging of resins (Mylar, Heat sealed, 0.5-7 CF drums, 20-35 CF supersacks) FDA cycling for food and pharmaceutical applications (taste and odor free) Resin Cleaning and Reconditioning Resin cleaning and reconditioning services provide an option for salvaging fouled, cross-contaminated and/or exhausted resin. Siemens can remove resins, transport them to our local processing plant, convert the resins and return them to your facility. Resin cleaning extends the resin's useful life, minimizes

operating costs and reduces system downtime. The resin can be transported to and from the job site via tanker truck, 55 gallon drum, lined fiber drum, or supersack. Bulk Transportation Siemens offers bulk delivery of new resin and disposal of spent resins. We eliminate drum handling by slurrying the resin directly from your water treatment service vessels to one of our company-owned tanker trucks. Bulk transportation greatly reduces the labor and steps involved with the documentation and administrative controls associated with temporary on-site and off-site disposal of resin. Performance Evaluation Program An important part of the Siemens service offering is to assist customers achieve maximum performance from their ion exchange system. Our proprietary, Performance Evaluation Program is a computer-based tool which evaluates current operating conditions and economic factors versus theoretical data. This allows us to evaluate the current resins, system operating parameters and replacement times, and make appropriate recommendations.
